I'm planning on starting soon. Just have a lot going on right now with my home business, and we've got the house on the market, so that's made it tough to plan anything out in advance. I don't leave the lockbox out, so the realtor has to set up showings in advance and then I let the people in and take off for a bit. We're actually going to take it down if it doesn't sell this summer, at that point I'll be able to unpack some stuff and then get busy.

What about bands? Do you play live or do you prefer jamming on your own or with friends?

I'm not very good in front of people, so it's definitely on my own. If I ever do record an album and get a record deal and what-not I'm in trouble.

I was going to ask you about who's influenced your song writing but I probably wouldn't know who the hell they are.

Tell me anyway.

Depends on the day. I want to do some speed metal stuff.. so Slayer, Anthrax, Metallica, Kreator, etc..

Progressive Blackened Death Metal... maybe a combination of Marduk, Unleashed, Opeth, and the like.

Mostly I just like to have fun though. Maybe I'll come up with something new.

Whatever I do, it's going to be something where people aren't going to say "MAN, that's annoying." I've heard so many trends in metal and I keep thinking.. ok, NOW it can't get any worse.

I've always been curious though.. why is it that infamous people who have the first name of John and middle name Wayne get their full names out there? You never hear John Gacy or John Bobbit.

Truthfully, I don't think I've been any closer to a live goat than about 15 feet. Not a big fan of farms or petting zoos.

A combination of listerine and vaseline. Not sure what you were going for there.

Depends on the weather. In the winter time, it's usually frozen solid within a few minutes. In spring/summer, it lingers for days.

No, but I'd put a mattress tag over the neck pickup cavity to see if you'd remove it.

When are you going to get tired of having a bazillion guitars and just settle on a single axe that will make you happy for the rest of your foreseeable life?

I can't see that happening. Each guitar has it's own strengths.

What started this whole refinishing obsession?

The first one I tried was an Explorer copy. I wanted a black guitar, it was white. (All of my other guitars were black.)

Then getting the first Dean, and just hating the natural finish.

a) a violin

Piano. It's got more range.

Who would win in a fight, Lemmy or God?

No contest.
